Overview
Feel the rush of the sled and powerful pull of the dog team as you glide through Aspen glades and rolling meadows on a Vail dog sledding tour. Dog sledding is a great way to explore the Vail wilderness that the whole family will enjoy. Dog sled tours generally run from December through April depending on snow conditions.
Where to go
The best dog sledding is down valley from Vail near the towns of Minturn and Wolcott where wilderness trails and open spaces abound. Sledding is usually done on private trails, which means you'll likely have the trail all to yourself.
Guided Tours
Dog sledding is a technical activity that requires years of experience to master, so explore the several guided dog sledding operations in the Vail Valley. Tours depart multiple times daily pending snow conditions.
